Walnut Creek FreeBSD 2.1 CD-ROM install seems to work >fine (from Toshiba 3401 SCSI), but at reboot I get last lines: >pci0:20 Buslogic, device=0x1040, class=storage (SCSI) [no driver ^^^^^^^^^ > assigned] ^^^^^^^^ That means the `bt' driver didn't recognize the drive for some reason, maybe it's a firmware problem of your BusLogic. If upgrading the firmware doesn't help, please get in contact with freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org. (Hey, remember, there's no such thing as Usenet support for FreeBSD! All the support goes in mailing lists. :-) I had problems with a BusLogic 2940 after a motherboard upgrade (from a neptune to triton, BTW). The only thing which changed was the motherboard, nothing else. (this was back when I was running 2.0.5). When I contacted BusLogic tech support, I was told that early versions of the 2940 firmware were "not fully PCI compliant". They were very nice and replaced my boards with ones with Rev E firmware, and everything now works nicely. I previously had Rev B firmware. So I would suggest that you try to get a firmware upgrade and see if it helps. -- ---------- Deborah Gronke Bennett (WD5HJH) kernel and device drivers engineer deborah@microunity.com (408)-734-8100 MicroUnity Systems Eng., 255 Caspian Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1015 USA
